La exposición presenta obras de arte en diferentes medios para expandir el tema de la filósofa Gloria Anzaldúa: «Para sobrevivir las Tierras Fronterizas/debes vivir sin fronteras/debes ser una encrucijada.»
A border is a dividing line, a narrow strip along a steep edge. A borderland is a vague and undetermined place created by the emotional residue of an unnatural boundary. It is in a constant state of transition.
Una frontera es una línea divisoria, una franja angosta a lo largo de un borde empinado. La tierra fronteriza es un lugar vago e indeterminado creado por el residuo emocional de una frontera antinatural. Se mantiene en estado constante de transición.
